About this property
Elegant farmhouse cottage on beautiful apple orchard
Modern farmhouse cottage set on 5 private acres including an apple orchard, 100 year old water tower, outbuildings and several majestic cypress and cedar trees. The home offers elegance and comfort rarely available on the coast. You will also find that any stay here is as much about enjoying the land as it is the house. Once an active homestead, this property is simply a delight to experience.
The recently renovated home has two similarly sized bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom, a living room and a modern kitchen/diner that opens onto the south facing patio, complete with fire pit. The bedrooms each have a queen bed, accommodating 4 guests. 1 additional guest can be accommodated on a fold away single bed, which can be set up on request in either of the bedrooms. (Please request this prior to arrival.). A spacious patio links the home to the water tower, which offers a hammock retreat space. This is the place to watch the wildlife in the morning, or enjoy the sun setting on the treetops by the fire pit in the evening.
The house has been meticulously refurbished using old growth redwood, salvaged from the home during the remodel. Featuring many modern amenities, the renovated space still honors the property's 100 year-plus homestead history.
There are 13 well established apple trees on the property, from which guests can enjoy picking their own apples during harvest season, September through November. Each season though brings its own natural joys, such as the apple blossom in March, the magnificent rhododendrons in April or the foxgloves in June.
A washer and dryer can be made available on request for longer stays.
The property sits on 5 acres; the entire property is available to guests. You'll discover many different spots on the property to enjoy, each giving a different aspect of the home and surrounding flora and fauna.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host
Hosted by Jo & Ed Schiro
Husband and wife team hosting you. We've been fixing up homes for over 15 years now; some to sell, some to live in, some to rent, some to offer as vacation rentals. We love houses, but always consider them homes with their own personalities!
Why they chose this property
The very first time we stepped onto this property, both of us fell in love with it. There's something about that makes everyone comment on what a special piece of land this is. Once an active homestead, with it's own windmill feeding the water tower, this land has many stories to tell! We have put our heart and soul into renovating this home and property over the last three years, and we hope you will fall in love with it too.
What makes this property unique
Private, tranquil open meadow space, yet within easy reach of both Mendocino and Fort Bragg, and all the attractions the coast has to offer. Modern style, not often seen with vacation rentals on the coast, complements with home's rich homestead history.
